8 AMAZING THINGS TO DO IN SAGUARO NATIONAL PARK

ARIZONA SONORA DESERT MUSEUM

This is not part of the national park but if you want to learn more about the desert ecosystem, this is a great place to visit. This is more of a zoo than a museum, with animal exhibits, an aquarium, and botanical gardens, and it also has a natural history museum.

It would be very easy to spend at least half of a day here, to tour the entire property.

While walking through the museum, a wild rattlesnake slithered across the sidewalk right in front of me. You really have to watch where you step because if I hadn’t been paying attention, I would have stepped right on this little guy. He slid off into the rocks and brush and I got one last photo before he disappeared.
